"A little word from the skins bosses at E4 on what you can expect from series 4:
'Filming of series 4 is well underway and we can confirm there will be 8 new episodes.
It's all about quality not quantity and we promise all the characters will be back, bigger and better than ever before.
Series 4 is set to be an explosive continuation of series 3 with powerful new storylines that finally answer some of the big questions about the gang; who they are and where they have got to in their lives. The fantastic Skins fans will not be disappointed.'
